Batian Martial Soul

Chapter 15007 Retreat

Yelü Tian looked down at the Silent Court below, his heart filled with conflicting emotions. It was so close, so very close!

Damn Ling Xiao, damn Jiang Yijian, why did you have to ruin his plans!

Damn it!

Just as he was hesitating, Jiang Yijian suddenly made a move.

He suddenly leaped off his horse and slashed at Hu Xie with his sword.

Hu Xie was locked in a fierce battle with Xiao Lianzhu, unable to defeat her, when suddenly he felt a bone-chilling coldness creeping over him.

He dared not be careless, and suddenly abandoned Xiao Lianzhu, turning around and throwing a punch in the direction from which the chill was coming.

Only then did he realize that it was a sword light.

"boom……!"

The terrifying sword light collided with his fist, producing a deafening roar. In that instant, Hu Xie felt an irresistible force coming from the sword, as if an ancient behemoth had crashed into him.

In an instant, he felt his arm trembling violently, and the area between his thumb and forefinger was excruciatingly painful.

Immediately afterwards, his body flew backward like a kite with a broken string, tumbling dozens of times in the air before he barely managed to steady himself, a trace of black blood spilling from the corner of his mouth.

He looked down at his arms and saw a deep, bone-revealing sword wound on his fist, dripping with blood and the bone clearly visible.

Hu Xie gritted his teeth, stood up, and stared intently at Jiang Yijian.

Although this sword strike was a sneak attack, Hu Xie could still sense the power of Jiang Yijian. Xiao Lianzhu was troublesome, but her soul techniques were even more powerful. However, as the soul body of the Sword Emperor Sect, he had the strongest resistance to soul techniques, so Xiao Lianzhu could not defeat him.

But Jiang Yijian is different. Jiang Yijian is a pure sword cultivator, and his destructive power is even more terrifying.

This sword strike nearly destroyed the body he had so painstakingly taken over.

After all, the original Hu Xie was at most a young martial artist who had just entered the Void Annihilation Realm. Even if he was possessed, he wouldn't have changed much.

While Hu Xie was still in shock, Xiao Lianzhu didn't let the opportunity slip by.

Black Moon transformed into a streak of black light and slashed fiercely at the gray-robed old man who had been cooperating with Tiger Demon in attacking her.

The old man was slightly weaker than Hu Xie, but he was still incredibly powerful. If Hu Xie hadn't joined forces with him, he wouldn't have been able to restrain her.

As the Black Moon descended, the gray-robed elder hastily prepared, forgetting that he was no match for Xiao Lianzhu on his own.

In addition, Xiao Lianzhu used soul magic while releasing the Black Moon, causing the gray-robed old man to lose his senses for a brief moment.

So much so that the guy didn't have time to dodge and was hit head-on by the eerie light. His body froze in mid-air for a moment, with an expression of disbelief still lingering on his face. Then, starting from his chest, his body was torn to pieces, and even his soul couldn't escape.

Seeing this, Hu Xie knew that the situation was hopeless. He hurriedly came to Yelü Tian's side, his expression extremely solemn: "Let's retreat. It's no use. I can't even suppress Xiao Lianzhu. If Jiang Yijian is added to the mix, I will surely die."

"Jiang Yijian's appearance was completely unexpected. We won't gain any advantage today. If we continue, we will only be wiped out. It would be better to withdraw our troops, go back and deal with Ling Xiao, regroup, and then make further plans."

"Of course, if you don't leave, I'll leave too. I finally managed to possess this body, and I don't want to lose it so soon."

Yelü Tian's expression grew increasingly grim.

He stared intently at Jiang Yijian, wishing the man would simply disappear from his sight.

But he knew that was impossible. Hu Xie's words were true. Their situation was hopeless. They couldn't even get past Jiang Yijian and Xiao Lianzhu, let alone destroy the Silent Court or kill Xiang Ying.

Both of them are among the eight strongest figures in the chaotic martial arts world.

how to spell?

Moreover, that despicable Ling Xiao is still plundering his lair, and the foundation of the Demon Soul Clan is already crumbling. If they don't go back to support them, they may really be completely wiped out.

Yelü Tian grew increasingly resentful and unwilling to accept his fate, but in the end, he could only let out a long sigh, suppressing his desire for revenge: "Everyone, retreat!"

Upon receiving the order, the Demon Soul Clan's army retreated swiftly like a tidal wave. Their once overwhelming momentum vanished in an instant, leaving only a group of disheveled and terrified warriors scrambling to escape into the distance.

Hu Xie followed closely behind Yelü Tian, ​​retreating while keeping a wary eye on Jiang Yijian and Xiao Lianzhu.

Fearing they might take the opportunity to pursue them, he was filled with apprehension.

"Aren't you going to chase after them?" Xiao Lianzhu asked, glancing at Jiang Yijian.

"Forget it. You know I can't act rashly. I had no choice but to act today. My injuries are still quite serious." Jiang Yijian sighed.

He wanted to wipe them all out in one fell swoop, so they wouldn't have another chance to attack the Silent Court.

Unfortunately, due to his special circumstances, although he was powerful, he could not easily make a move.

"Then I'll do it!"

Xiao Lianzhu certainly wouldn't let go of this opportunity to kick a man when he's down. A cold glint flashed in her eyes, and she transformed into a streak of light, chasing after the retreating Demon Soul Clan army.

"Stay here!"

Xiao Lianzhu slashed out with the Black Moon Blade, a strange blade of light aimed directly at Hu Xie's back.

Hu Xie's expression changed, and he was about to turn around to fight.

Although he was injured, it wasn't serious. He should be able to barely withstand one of Xiao Lianzhu's attacks.

Just then, a voice rang in his ears, "Get out of the way, leave it to me! We haven't made a move in many years, it seems some people have forgotten how powerful we are!"

Tiger Demon instinctively dodged.

Then he saw a purple figure blocking his way.

He was a middle-aged man with a cold and stern face, sharp features, and long, gray hair that cascaded down his shoulders like a waterfall, fluttering in the wind and making him appear even more sinister and cold.

He was dressed in a deep purple robe, and his aura was even more powerful than Yelü Tian's.

"Stop right there!"

The man raised his hand and waved it, and a burst of black energy surged from his palm, transforming into an unparalleled black blade, which directly slashed at the blade light of the Black Moon.

"Ding……!"

A crisp, clear sound rang out in the void, like jade striking each other, yet it carried a force that pierced the soul.

The next instant, Black Moon's blade flashed and stopped.

"Crack..."

Then it shattered directly, turning into countless tiny, eerie points of light.

Xiao Lianzhu coldly stared at this person. She hadn't expected that there would be such a powerful being among the Demon Soul Clan who could withstand one of her attacks. He was truly extraordinary.

"Forget it, Mayor, let's not pursue them. The Demon Soul Clan has a deep foundation and seems to be colluding with the former Sword Emperor Sect. Let's be careful, it might be a trap!"

Jiang Yijian suddenly spoke up.

It's true that Xiao Lianzhu is very strong, but the Demon Soul Clan should not be underestimated. The so-called eight strongest in the Chaotic Martial World do not actually include the Demon Soul Clan.

The Demon Soul Clan once possessed enough power to crush the entire Chaotic Martial Realm; they couldn't have left behind a formidable fighting force. We must be cautious. (End of Chapter)
